Understanding the text:

Part A

1. A major purpose of advertising is to inform us of new products or good

bargains/ help producers sell their products.

It is possible that advertising is becoming less effective because we are

exposed to too much advertising now and so much of it is misleading.

2.The more adventurous members of the family can visit some of the

attractions of the island, including a trip to an ancient cavern/ study the

fascinating sea creatures of that area.

The less adventurous members can use the hotel swimming pool/ paddling

pool or play on the mini-golf course or visit the less adventurous places of

interest.

Ghosts are often seen around Lake Tali.

Wood has been used to make the accommodation units.

The holiday is cheap because the resort is new and the owners claim to be

more interested in making the guests happy than making money.

3.Bantu island is really only a small, bear, exposed rock in the middle of the

ocean.

Swimming around the island would be dangerous because of the many

sharks.

The swimming pool isn‘t in use because there is no water in it.

The author doesn‘t believe the stories because it is too small and too shallow

for the stories to be true.

The only reason your money ―goes further‖ is that Bantu Island is a long way

away so the money will be traveling further.

4.The advice the author gives in the last two paragraphs is to be very careful

when reading advertisements and always try to check the information from

an independent source before you buy whatever is advertised.

Part B

Part C

1.Advertising is often misleading and in some cases, ―legalized lying‖. The

advertising brochure for Bantu is obvious very misleading—although nothing

it says is actually a lie, it does not present the truth.

2.Once they got to the island and saw what it was like, they would not want to

go on any tours.

3.No, it was very carefully worded so that it would be difficult to prove it told

any lies—simply did not tell the whole truth or misled the reader in different

ways.

4.We should look carefully at things that seem attractive and cheap. There is

often a problem that is not obvious.

Developing your skills:

Which of the following could be used to describe the tone of the newspaper article?

Humorous, aggressive, sarcastic

Part A: 1.F 2.F 3.T 4.T 5.T 6.T 7.F 8.F

Part B: 1. These exams ―decide their futures‖ and the penalties for failure are ―final‖. Also look at speech paragraph 6 ― the ―threat of being a failure for life‖ is perhaps even worse than a death sentence.

2. The labour market does not urgently need ―newly qualified people‖. There is no ―hurry‖; the situation is not critical.

3. To compare the large number of lessons with the tiny result and also to say that ―40-minute pieces of learning‖ and―little pieces of geography or history or biology‖do not really add up to any substantial body of knowledge. Perhaps, too, the writer wants to show that mere statistics do not really prove that the results are good.

4. The word suggests an unpleasant experience. The writer was, when a child, the subject ―and the education system was the ―boss‖. The results of the child‘s subjection were not good. Also look at speech paragraph 8 again: the system ―can never be called efficient‖; it simply helps the administrators and the bureaucrats. Developing your skills

Part A

notes 1:

they were sitting round a coffee table.

Thomas was wearing his police uniform

Snow was blowing against burning.

notes2:

only the man and his wife were in the kitchen

there was a garden and a garden gate outside.

The man at the garden gate was wearing police uniform The man at the garden gate was very tall.

note3:

The man was sitting next to the fire

Thomas had a blood stain on his chest

The grandmother was also standing behind Thomas Part B

1.the curse was that the bag and its ―evil contents‖ gave the grandfather power. The

power enabled him to get anything he wanted in life. The price was the life of his own wife.

2.he bought the house with the help of the power he had been given by the bag. But

he forgot the warning---there was a price to pay for his power.

3.his first wish was for 100, 000 pounds. He would have received this money

because of the Life insurance---his son Thomas was insured. When Thomas was killed, the Insurance Company paid him this money.

4.Arthur‘s second wish was ‖I want all my family to be together again.‖ This wish

came true but not in the way he had intended.

Developing your skills

Part A

1.similarly on the night that Arthur asked for 100,000 pounds, his son Thomas died.

2.both Arthur and his father paid the price for the ?help‖ they asked for. They both

knew the bag was evil---but they both used it to get what they thought they wanted.

3.Arthur has already learned why his father thought so. But he tries to put the

warning from his father out of his mind. And his son later pays the price---the first price.

4.his wife definitely is right. Very soon the son Thomas is killed.

5.this is because he was a premonition. He knows what has happened and he

probably feels, as his father had left, that he is responsible. He feels guilty.

1. It‘s the area where people feel safe,secure,comfortable,unthreatened. This area surrounds us ,like a protective blanket.

2. In order to ―protect‖ ourselves and to discourage any strangers from ―invading‖ our personal space by attempting to make contact with us.

3. Because we need to feel that this area is our own;it belongs to us ;it‘s part of our

own self .

4. When people from different cultural or geographical backgrounds are together.（because the size of the ―space ‖needed within different cultures differs;some cultures can easily accept closer ―contact‖----and therefore less personal space –than others.)

5.If attempts to preserve our personal space are ignored by others ,and if we

therefore feel a heightened sense of discomfort, threat of even danger,we might use force---e.g. a loud voice, or actual physical force ,to make it very clear that we are ―defending our territory‖.

Developing your skills

Part A: Familiarizing yourself with the features of poetry

1. He believed that love is a fundamental blessing in life. There are many varied aspects to love:

Burns loved his country (Scotland), women, ―humanity and honest, simple goodness ‖, friendship, trust, sharing, etc. Further he believed in morality, and fairness —he wrote about poverty and weakness and sadness.

He had such a philosophy because his own childhood —his family was poor and he had to work hard even as a child, but he was given love and encouragement —perhaps influenced his feelings about life, and about the value and importance of the ―common people ‖ (i.e. ordinary people).

3. several: e.g. –obviously —the chorus in ―Auld Land Syne ‖; the phrase ―times gone by ‖, ―I

see …‖, and ―I hear …‖ in‖ Jean‖; the ―theme line ‖, ―my love is like …‖and ―I

will love you …‖ in ―my love is like a red, red rose ‖.

4. Yes —especially in ―John Anderson, My Jo ‖, where the past and the present are contrasted: e.g.

―your hair was like the raven ‘s …‖ ―Your hair is like the snow …‖ The contrasts in this poem are very clearly portrayed by the tenses used (Simple present and simple past).

5. Yes. Some of poems have sentenced of identical length (to maintain the rhythm of the verse),

for example ―Auld Lang Syne

‖, however, the sentence lengths in ―my love is like a red, red rose ‖ vary throughout the poem. Generally speaking, the shorter the sentence is, the more emphasis the writer wants to place on it.

Paragraph 1: a) Paragraph 2: c) Paragraph 3: b) Paragraph 4: b) Paragraph 5: a) Paragraph 6: c) Paragraph 7: a) Paragraph 8: b) Paragraph 9: a) Developing your skills

Part B: Subjective / objective writing

1.What facts do you know about the flat?

Flat: In effect, none. (Except, perhaps, that an apartment exists! Adjectives such as “lovely”, “compact”, “splendid” have no factual “meaning”.)

Living Room: Again, none. What does “superb”actually –and factually –

mean?

Kitchen: There is one fact here: the kitchen is smaller (“more compact”) … But it’s not a very helpful fact. We are not told how much smaller it is! It’s not even 100% certain what other room it is smaller than! (The implication, of course, is that the comparison is with the living room but in Western houses the kitchen is always smaller than the living room in any case)

Bedroom 1: There is one fact about the room, and two about what the room contains (i.e. a bed and light). The fact about the room is that it has a window.

Bedroom 2: Again, no facts.

Bathroom: There is no bathroom. (The landing is not part of the flat; the bathroom is a communal one.)

2.What‘s the writer‘s purpose in writing this text?

To “sell”the “attractiveness of the flat”–even though the flat is not really very attractive at all!

3.What subjective words does he use to help him in his purpose?

lovely; needs to be seen; perfect opportunity; splendid; great appeal; superb; of great character; convenient; easily; modern kitchen; conveniently; nicely 4.Briefly give your own opinions about the flat and explain what led you to these

opinions.

It’s cold, or in bad condition –or perhaps both: “…effort may be required to improve…”

It’s small: “…cleaning wo n’t ever be a problem” because there isn’t much to clean. It’s dangerous: “the electrical wiring may need to be changed”.

The bedrooms are tiny: you can “turn off the light or open the window” while on the bed, and there is only “one side” of “space” to look after a baby.

There is no private bathroom. Do we really want to “encourage friendliness”with strangers while we are in the bathroom?

Explaining the meaning of idioms

Column A Column B

1.to admit that you were wrong about something

2.to take a long time to do something simple

3.to react angrily or rudely to somebody for no reason

4.to risk being blamed if things go wrong

6.to pay much more than something is worth

7.to be very much in love

8.to be completely different from each other

9.to be dishonest about one‘s feelings and opinions

10.to be very happy about something

Now try to find out what each of the following idiomatic expressions means and write the explanation in the space provided.

Picture 1. to have itchy feet: to want to leave a place and start traveling

Picture 2. to put your foot in it: to make a (usually foolish) mistake

Picture 3. to get cool feet: to become afraid to do something and so change your mind about doing it.

A dialogue about being in love

(YP = young people; M = Mother; F = Father)

YP: I‘ve got itchy feet. I want to take off.

M&F: What? What‘s up?

YP: Well, don‘t bite my head off, but…

M: But what? It isn‘t because of your girlfriend Brenda, is it?

F: Brenda‘s alright. A bit plain, but she‘s quite nice: her heart‘s in the right place. M: I don‘t like her. She‘s two-faced. I never did understand why you were so head over heels…

YP: No. No! Don‘t make a meal of it. It‘s not Brenda. I just feel stumped

F: Well…―itchy feet‖… To do what? To go where?

M: Yes, you‘d better be careful. If I were you…

YP: But you aren‘t me. I want a better job. I‘ve been working for XYZ Corp. for two weeks already and I haven‘t got a promotion or a pay rise or, or… I‘m

fed up. I‘m going to quite, call it a day –that‘s what I mean by ―itchy feet‖. I

want to quite right now, while I‘m in the mood – before I got cold feet.

F: You were on cloud nine when you got the job. Why not give it a couple more weeks and see how it goes. And I‘d advise you to keep quiet about your

feelings and your dissatisfaction at least for the moment.

M: Your head‘s in the clouds – that‘s your trouble. Quit now – and you‘ll pay through the nose for it. Just keep quiet – you don‘t want to have to eat your

words.

YP: Yeah, well… I‘ll cool it for a day or two. But I don‘t like keeping quiet. I don‘t want to be two-faced. Even Brenda isn‘t two-faced!

F: It could be better to be two-faced than to put your head on the block! Creative Reading Book 2

Part B: Interpreting the text

1. Firstly, of course, because he was a very good (and well-known, Chinese) competitor. Secondly, because he very nearly beat Greg Lauganis. Thirdly, because many people believed he had, really, won. Fourthly, because of his sportsmanship: he didn‘t complain – instead, he praised his rival.

2. The word ―really‖ indicates that there is some doubt as to whether it is a ―genuine‖ question. In fact the question is ―rhetorical‖– i.e. the writer isn‘t really asking a question for information but is using a question form in order to give his own opinion. (This opinion is that many Chinese people were more happy about the prestige than interested in the sports.)

3. It implies that, although pens and newspapers are small items it is likely that many extra millions will be sold during the Games because if the huge number of visitors.

4. Because of the length of time he has been in the organization, he ―made a career‖of the Olympics, and he ―rose through the ranks‖ to become President.

5. No. They are far more. They bring prestige to the city hosting them. They probably produce profit. They certainly create lots of jobs, new buildings get built, and the host city is proud to be able to ―bask in its fame‖.

(about the text)

1. Ground management; event management; administration; engineering; tourism; sales and marketing; selling food and drinks; customer service.

2. Systems programmers; business analysts; architects; engineers; finance experts.

3. Athletes who had competed in the Games.

(about obesity)

1. Diabetes; cancer; heart disease; lung disease; psychological ailments such as depression and low self-esteem.

2. Obesity is ―one of the greatest health risks‖. All the body can suffer as a result.

3. An entire class session could be spent debating this subject! For example, how can we decide if fat people are ―happier‖? Do we have to count all fat people? Then, too, how do we define ―fat‖? More difficult yet: how do we define ―happy‖? It might be suggested that if fat people are happier, ―they shouldn‘t be‖, or ―they don‘t realize they have a problem‖. But perhaps such discussion and debate can never be satisfactorily concluded; perhaps it‘s simpler to quote another old adage: ―Laugh and grow fat; grow fat and be laughed at.‖!

2. obese 3 times obesity 2 times

1. Xiong Ni, Greg Lauganis, Carl Lewis, Mike Powell, Juan Antonio Samaranch.

2. 1976 Montreal Olympics, 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, 1988 Seoul Olympics, 1992 Barcelona Olympics, 1996 Atlanta Olympics, 2000 Sydney Olympics, 2008 Beijing Olympics.

3. The costs are huge. Merely the conversion of one building, for the Sydney Games, cost US$240 million. The total cost of these Games was probably approximately US$2.5 billion!

4. Both short-term and more ―specialized‖ jobs are mentioned. Short-term examples include jobs in selling and marketing, administration, tourism, customer service and ground management. More specialized examples include jobs in systems programming, business and finance analysis, architecture and engineering.

5. Basically, profit and development. If the Games are well organized, the host city/country will make a lot of money from the influx of thousands upon thousands of visitors – and their spending; in the longer term, the new facilities (which have to be built for the Games), such as new buildings and infrastructure, mean that the city is better equipped to bid for large international events in the future.

八年级语文（课外）阅读训练 （一）儿子的创意毕淑敏 有一天，儿子突然说：“我准备到日本旅游一次。”因为她经常异想天开，我置之不理。 他说：“咦，你为什么不表态？难道不觉得我很勇敢吗？” 我说：“是啊是啊，很勇敢，可世上很多事并不单是勇敢就够用。比如这件事吧，还得有钱。” 她很郑重地说：“这上面写着，举办一个有关宗教博物馆建筑的创意征文比赛。金牌获得者，免费到日本观光旅游。”说着，把一本海外刊物递给我。 我看也不看地说：“关于宗教，你懂得多少？关于建筑，你懂得多少？金牌银牌历来只有一块，多么激烈的争夺。你还是好好做功课吧。” 他毫不气馁地说：“可是我有创意啊。比如这个博物馆里可以点燃藏香，给人一种浓郁的宗教气氛；比如这个博物馆里可以卖斋饭，让参观的人色香味立体地感受宗教。比如……” 我打断他说：“别比如了，人家征的是建筑创意，要像悉尼的贝克状大歌剧院，有独特的风格。我记得你小时候连积木都搭不好，还奢谈什么建筑！” 十几岁的儿子好脾气，不理睬我的挖苦，自语道：“在地面挖一个巨大的深坑，就要100米吧，然后把这个博物馆建在底下……” 我说：“噢，那不成了地下宫殿？” 儿子不理我，遐想着说：“博物馆和大地粗糙的岩石泥土间要留有空隙，再用透明的建筑材料砌成外墙，这样参观的人们时时刻刻会感到土地的存在，产生一种神秘感。从底下向阳光明媚的地面攀升，会有人的自豪感。地面部分设计成螺旋状的飞梯，象征着人类将向宇宙探索……”他在空中比画了一个上大下小的图形。 我不客气地打断他：“挖到地下那么深的地方，会有矿泉水涌出来，你想过没有？再说什么样的建筑材料，可以长久地保持你所要求的透明度？还有你设计的飞梯，空中的螺旋状，多危险！还有……“ 儿子摆摆手说：“妈妈，您说的问题都是问题。不过那是工程师们需要解决的问题，不关我的创意。妈妈，您知道什么是创意吗？那就是最富有创造性的意见啊！“我叹了一口气说：“好了，随你瞎想好了。不过我要提醒你一句，对于一个学生来说，我以为最好的创意莫过于一个好成绩了。“ 儿子在电脑上完成了他的创意。 很长时间过去了，在我们几乎将这件事淡忘的时候，儿子收到了一个那家征文举办部门寄

Unit 1 Advertising Part A: Comprehending the text 1.to inform us of new products or good bargains/help producers to sell their products. … we are exposed to too much advertising now and so much of it is misleading, so many people now ignore it. 2.visit some of the attractions of the island, including a trip to an ancient cavern//study the fascinating sea creatures of that area. … use the hotel swimming pool/paddling pool or play on the mini-golf course; visit the less adventurous places of interest ( in an air-conditioned vehicle) such as a local lake. … around Lake Tali. … the accommodation “units”. … the resort is new and the owners claim to be more interested in making the guests happy than making money. 3. small, bare, exposed rock in the middle of the ocean. … dangerous because of the many sharks. … there is no water in it. … it is too small and too shallow for the stories to be true. … Bantu Island is a long way away so the money will be traveling further. The expression is not being used in its usual meaning of money lasting longer as things are so cheap. 4. to be very careful when reading advertisements and always try to check the information from an independent source before you buy whatever is being advertised. Part C Interpreting the text 1.The writer is trying to say that advertising is often very misleading and, in some cases, “legalized lying”. The advertising brochure for Bantu Island is obviously very misleading --- and, although nothing it says is actually a lie, it could be argued that it does not represent the truth. 2.Because once they got to the island and saw what it was like, they would not want to go on any tours. 3.No, it was very carefully worded so that it would be difficult to prove it told any lies ---- simply did not tell the whole truth or misled the reader in different ways. For example, the resort does have a swimming pool (and even a paddling pool) --- it does not actually say that they don’t have any water; it does say that sea creatures abound, it does not say that are sharks, etc. 4.We should look carefully at things that seem attractive (and cheap). There is often a problem that is not obvious. This might also apply to other things, such as a motor vehicle, a new apartment, “special offers” on CDs, books, etc.

I have often wondered what it would be like to have such a job, and I think I would do it very well. English is my native language but as my mother speaks Putonghua, I am almost bilingual in the two languages. I have also spent a year studying in France, so I can speak French fairly fluently. I have always had the ability to make people laugh when I imitate the voices of famous actors or make various animal noises.I am a good mimic, and I think this would be valuable as a voice-over artist. When I was at school and university, I was regularly asked to speak at functions and during school assemblies. I have acted in various plays, too. I have received training as a language teacher, so I think that my voice is “clear” and strong. I am very interested in your advertised training package and I am keen to work overseas. Please find enclosed my up-to-date CV and a letter of reference from my university teachers. In the hope that my application will receive your fullest attention, I remain Yours faithfully

北京市海淀区高一下学期期中考试语文试题 含答案

海淀区高一年级第二学期期中练习 语文2014.4 本试卷共100分，考试时间120分钟。 一、本大题共6小题，共12分。 阅读下面文字，按要求完成1—4题。（8分） 央视《新春走基层·家风是什么》系列报道既体现了家风对中国人的无声滋润和深刻影响，也反映了人们对家风传统日渐甲的无奈和感慨。 家风又指门风，是一家或一族世代相传的道德标准和乙方法。中国古人的家风受传统儒家思想影响至深，古往今来，中国文人留下了不少“家风联”，令晚辈①，深受教益。如“传家无别法，非耕即读；裕后有良图，唯俭与勤”“绵世泽莫如行善，振家声还是读书”“养性却是扶正义，②”等，都成为“言传”和“身教”的丙。 “修身、齐家、治国、平天下”是中国儒家思想的核心，齐家重要的一点便是正家风。家风的形成，无关贫富，无关文化，只关德行。好的家风，承载着一个家庭的美德，是一种无形的强大精神力量。家风正，自会人才辈出，涌现国之脊梁；家风不正，则多出纨绔子弟，不孝子孙。因此，古之名门旺族无不重视家风建设。清代名臣曾国藩治家教子有方，不管天下风云变换，曾家始终保持着谨严的家风，对子孙后代熏陶渐染。因此，曾氏家族造就了庞大的人才群体，创造了丰富的文化成果。 1.文中加点词语的注音和书写全都正确的一项是（2分） A. 脊．梁(jǐ) 人才辈出 B. 纨绔．（kù）不孝子孙 C. 渐．染（jiàn）名门旺族 D.承载．（zài）风云变换 2. 依次填入文中甲、乙、丙三处的词语,最恰当的一项是（2分） A. 流失处世准则 B. 流失处事法则 C. 流逝处事法则 D. 流逝处世准则 3. 填入文中①处的成语,最恰当的一项是（2分） A. 感同身受 B. 感慨万千 C. 耳濡目染 D. 耳闻目睹 4.在文中②处填入对联的下联，最恰当的一项是（2分） A.换门不改旧家风 B.宗功显世树家风 C.出闺宜守我家风 D.修身只为正家风 5.下列有关文学常识的表述有误的一项是（2分） A.孟子是继孔子之后的儒家大师，他提出的“王道”，是指儒家“以仁义治天下”的政治主张。 B.战国末期的著名思想家荀子，是儒家重要的代表人物，他认为后天的学习能让自己日益完善。 C.《过秦论》是西汉贾谊的一篇政论，作者意在借秦亡的教训警示汉朝统治者勿蹈秦亡的覆辙。 D.韩愈是唐代新乐府运动的倡导者，他在《师说》中所提到的“传道”，是指传授儒家的道统。 6.下面文段取材于《红楼梦》第十五回中北静王与贾政的对话，对其中加点词的解说和使用的判断正确的一项是（2分） 水溶（北静王）见他（宝玉）语言清楚，谈吐有致，一面又向贾政笑道：“令郎真乃龙驹凤雏，非小王在家父前唐突，将来‘雏凤清于老凤声’，未可量也。”贾政忙陪笑道：“犬子岂敢谬承金奖……”水溶又道：“若令郎在家难以用功，不妨常到寒第。小王虽不才，却多蒙海上众名士凡至都者，未有不另垂青目……”贾政忙躬身答应。 A.令郎：是说话人对对方有成就的儿子的尊称，使用不正确。 B.家父：是晚辈对对方父亲的敬称，使用正确。
